re: #179 Capitalist Tool

Agreed.
Lifelong hunter, but still took a hunter safety course a couple of years and would highly recommend it to anyone. A similar class for new gun purchasers (perhaps grandfathered for old guys like me) might have some benefit.
One doesn’t presently need to demonstrate any sort of competence, experience or attitude to purchase a gun.

I certainly have no problem with this. Gun safety is not only common sense, but seems to me entirely constitutional, even for the most strident NRA folks.
